Nearly a century old, this charismatic residence is as appealing to new generations as it was when renowned architect Thomas Bates designed it for local businessman, James Lomas. Only a few owners have been the proud caretakers since then, and now is the time for someone new to take the reins of this unique home.

Exuding warmth and a welcoming nature, its solid construction is the perfect recipe of traditional features rarely seen these days, including Rimu fixtures and vibrant William Morris wallpaper. Its contemporary elements are the perfect complement to this grandeur, including the impressive modern kitchen with island and open plan flow to a sundrenched deck.

With undeniable street appeal, what is not immediately evident are the multitude of living spaces and areas in this flexible home, including an upstairs theatre room and ample spaces to bring a cushion, book and relax in the sun. Or choose to enjoy the more traditional areas of the home, with its formal living and dining rooms featuring iron fretwork and stained-glass touches, plus superb games room.

An enviable family home, you may wish to open its appeal to guests in the form of a boutique hotel or B&B, as the layout, location and luxury certainly lends itself to such an esteemed use. Free-standing bath and window seats to relax at the end of the day create an unrivalled haven for your family or guests, with abundant views from upstairs.

Fusing the best of two centuries, this immaculate home has a bright and exciting future. Make it a cherished part of yours.
